AVISynth Open Failure, not valid plugins??

[thomaslurv]

Here's my avs script:

LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\mpeg2dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\decomb.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\Documents and Settings\thomas\Desktop\newproject\project.d2v")
telecide(post=false)
decimate(cycle=5)
BicubicResize(512,384,0,1)

I have installed AVISynth 2.5, yet every time I try to open my avs files in either VirtualDub or Nandub I get "AVISynth open failure C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\mpeg2dec.dll is not a AVISynth 2.5 plugin" ...

I;m totally baffled? 2.5 is the lastest verison of AVIsynth isn't it?

try mpeg2dec2 or mpeg2dec3

I had the same problem when I tried to use the Lanzcos resizer. How do you select between the different DLL's UncasMS?

I have now got mpeg2dec3, when I open my AVS file I now get decomb.dll is not an AVIsynth 2.5 plugin.!!

grrrrrrrr

If I change my script to this then I can get it to work

LoadPlugin("C:\MPEG2Dec3.dll")
mpeg2source("C:\project.d2v")
BicubicResize(512,384,0,1)

But I need to use decomb!

f'king thing

make sure to have filters for avisynth 2.5 installed
(if unsure get tsunami 399 from my page - avisynth 2.08 + 2.51 will be included with corresponding filters for those versions)

my decomb dll dates 01-12-03

and btw LANCZOS is a much better resizer than bicubic - maybe give it a try.

Praise Jesus!

It works, many, many thanks!!!

[UncasMS]

you're welcome - but which way did you go?

[thomaslurv]

I downloaded the 399 from your page and used the filter from there...

Now, although I can open it in Nandub now without any problems. It just can't get the filter to actually show results! my output still looks interlaced.? when I add the standard virtualdub/nandub deinterlace filter, I can see what it does. But I;m not having any success with decomb?

I;m also having trouble getting DVD2AVI 1.77 to work with avisynth. I had to use 1.76!

thanks

Yes, I'm a dummy. I forgot the FieldDeinterlace() part )
